About You

* 6+ years' PQE in corporate law, with solid grounding in M&A and corporate governance from either private practice or a listed in-house environment.
* Strong working knowledge of the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules.
* Ability to distil complex legal issues into clear, commercially pragmatic advice for senior executives.
